Hello all,

I'm in a bit of a predicament, and I hope that someone more skilled
than I am can help.

I'm compiling GRUB for the x86_64 EFI platform, and everything seems
to proceed okay until I actually run GRUB. When I do, it complains
about the absence of vbe.mod. This confuses me because there *is no*
vbe.mod under my configuration; it is not under grub-core in my build
directory, and furthermore GRUB's Makefile (in this case,
Makefile.core.def) specifies that it only works on the i386_pc
platform, not EFI.

module = {
  name = vbe;
  common = video/i386/pc/vbe.c;
  enable = i386_pc;
};

Why, then, would GRUB be complaining about its absence when from what
I can tell, it should not looking for it in the first place. Can
anyone explain this to me? I assume that this error occurs when I try
to set the gfxmode and gfxpayload variables:

set gfxmode=auto
set gfxpayload=keep

Here's my configure line:

./configure --with-platform=efi --enable-grub-fstest=no
- --enable-grub-mkfont=no --disable-nls --enable-efiemu=no

Any thoughts? I'm quite confused...
